A Bountiful Season

2014 has been the most bountiful season for Grow Local Colorado to date. We are grateful to all of you that made this season so successful. Our pre-season goal was to grow 5,000 pounds of produce this year. We easily surpassed that goal and are proud to say that 5,513 pounds of fresh, local, organic produce was shared with nine communities in need. We reached that incredible number thanks to being 100% powered by volunteers. Our volunteers put in 1,078 hours this season; 255 of which were by kids ranging in age from five to eighteen. We were also blessed by seventeen businesses and organizations that partnered with us to make our gardens such a great success. Our partners helped us with all the work in the gardens as well as providing funding, food, support and seedlings. To each of you we say, "Thank you". We are most appreciative of you: sharing fresh produce with those most in need in our community; teaching gardening skills to all ages and needs; ensuring our gardens were a beautiful and healthy oasis; and sharing your talents, passions and resources with our community. We are most grateful! Let's continue to grow together.
